The popular GP practices are looking forward to caring for the players, supporters and their families and helping them to achieve optimal health and wellness.

Wyong District Netball Association commenced in 1961, with girls playing on grass courts with no facilities. From its humble beginnings, the Association has significantly grown over the years to now accommodate over 2,600 members participating in competition each week with Regional & State events held at the venue along with State school events and gala days. “Our teams have achieved great results at New South Wales championships over the years and we have had several players selected in Australian, NSW State teams & State school girls teams” states Kellie Walker, PR + Sponsorship Manager. The Association is run by volunteers who have worked hard over the past 56 years to make the Association what it is today.

WDNA is excited to have the expertise of the local medical group onboard as a sponsor for the next 3 years. “We know our members will benefit from the health checks, advice and health programs the medical practices can provide not to mention convenient access to the 4 site locations. We look forward to a successful partnership and an outstanding 2018 netball season” says Walker.
